Is it not allowed to overtake on a solid line?
1 Answers
Solid lines are divided into yellow solid lines and white solid lines. In principle, as long as it is a solid line, it cannot be crossed, especially the yellow solid line. Introduction to white solid lines: White solid lines are used to separate lanes, also known as guide lane lines. Vehicles are prohibited from changing lanes after entering the guide lane line. The yellow solid line in the middle of the road must not be crossed or violated, as the opposite side is the oncoming lane. For dashed lines, crossing or overtaking is allowed, but the prerequisite is to ensure safety. Definition of overtaking: It refers to the driving process in which a vehicle in the same lane signals, overtakes the vehicle in front from the left side, and then returns to the original lane in accordance with regulations. According to Article 50 of the "Road Traffic Management Regulations," motor vehicles must comply with the following rules when overtaking: before overtaking, the left turn signal must be turned on, and the horn must be sounded (except in areas or sections where honking is prohibited, and at night, the headlights should be switched between high and low beams). After confirming safety, the vehicle should overtake from the left side of the vehicle being overtaken. After maintaining a necessary safe distance from the overtaken vehicle, the right turn signal should be turned on, and the vehicle should return to the original lane.
